WASHINGTON — It's the "most wide-ranging investigation" in Justice Department history: the unprecedented manhunt for hundreds of rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Donald Trump's behalf on Jan. 6, 2021, and the criminal inquiry into efforts to stop the peaceful transfer of power.
It's also a logistical nightmare.
As cases against Capitol rioters work their way through the court system and a federal grand jury hears testimony about Trump’s role in Jan. 6, some federal officials are raising concerns that it could bring the already stretched investigation of Jan. 6 to a breaking point.
The Justice Department has asked for help. Its 2023 budget request asks Congress for more than $34 million to fund 130 employees, including 80 federal prosecutors, to aid the "extraordinary," "unprecedented" and "complex" investigation.
Former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance, an MSNBC legal analyst, said: "People are concerned about the resources. It's an enormous amount of cases, and that puts pressure not just on DOJ, but on the courts and probation. It puts pressure on the entire system."
One reason for hope, sources say, is that a new batch of "term AUSAs," or assistant U.S. attorneys hired on a temporary basis, will soon join the Capitol Siege Section, providing much-needed relief that could help manage the existing docket and speed up new cases. It's just a bonus that the two-year positions appeal to young lawyers who may already be very familiar with the technology and social media platforms that have played huge roles in the Jan. 6 probe, an official said.

Maybe only limit the investigation to Ray Epps and his crew.
Can't even get through the first sentence without a lie. See Tagline.

‘ They always have enough people to conduct Raids on anyone connected to Trump.’
So true..
Where are the 25 full time FBI agents who spent 2 yrs looking for Eric Rudolf? In idea roomy local deputy found him in a dumpster on a Sunday morning.
i.e. they’re saying they need more of a bribe to keep this under wraps.
7 Degrees of an Insurrection
This is our extracted tax dollars at work.
just posting for my friend.....
Yeah...
I’m trying as hard as I can, but I can’t think of a more deserving department to break.
Gotta get granny. Meanwhile narco terrorists are walking across the border bringing in tons of poison to kill Americans. Let’s go Biden!
It’ll stop when the present Marxists are driven from power, not before.
*sob*
Having trouble lining up the manpower to frame people, eh?
Don’t worry, they’ll always come up with the money to investigate “noose hoaxes”.
A few facts about the DOJ:
36,149 people in FY 2022 and that is a growing #
350 “Resident Agencies” around the U.S.
63 legal attaché offices around the world
56 field offices in the US
...with all the above, tens of millions of Americans have come to have ZERO trust in an agency that has become rotten to the core with marxist liberal democrats and want the agency shut down completely and STARTED OVER with a commitment to non partisanship that has serious consequences when not adhered to.
It also needs to be cut in half and the Washington D.C. office shut down and split into 50 offices in 50 State capitols. It also needs a new name. I suggest the National Investigative Service with all Biden and Obama hires terminated. My bet is Trump will have a similar plan announced soon.
Break it already.
Trump committed no crime.
Offered 20,000 National Guard Troops Tp Pelosi and Chuckie.
They refused his offer.
